The Recreation Department has determined that membership fees should increase for 2026, due to increasing costs of operations. In setting rates, the Recreation Department is also planning to modernize and simplify membership categories, aligning more with department policy and matching up more with neighboring city recreation centers. The new categories coupled with the rates will help the department close the gap in revenue vs. expenses of operations. In addition to this, there will be breaks for families with children under the age of 6 and with family members that turn 18 and still live in the same household. This is especially important as the pools are coming back online and we should see a large increase in family memberships. The Recreation Department also plans to run a promotion at the start of 2026. Anyone renewing their membership prior to February 28, 2026 will pay their 2025 rate. The exception to this is those in the Once a Member, Always a Member category as 2025 is the last year for this category. 20777 Lorain Road Fairview Park, OH 44126 Mayor Bill Schneider 440-333-2200 (City Hall) www.fairviewpark.org Proposed 2026 Rates: Resident Corporate Non-Resident Household Primary (age 18-59) $150.00 $275.00 $350.00 Household of 2 $275.00 $500.00 $575.00 Additional Household Member $65.00 $75.00 $75.00 Youth Individual (ages 12-17) $100.00 $150.00 $200.00 College (ages 18-23) $125.00 $175.00 $225.00 Senior (ages 60+) $105.00 $170.00 $220.00 Senior Household of 2 (both ages 60+) $200.00 $325.00 $400.00 Active Military Free $75.00 $75.00 Monthly (ages 12+) $25.00 $45.00 $60.00 Membership Definitions Membership Categories Membership Categories are Resident, Corporate and Non-Resident.
